Iraq Today

After reading Back to Iraq’s article on the shrine bombing and it’s potential aftermath, I’ve come under the impression that, as the saying goes — the poop has hit the air circulator…

White House Advance Team (a.k.a. WHAT)

kevinyezbick — Wed, 29 Jun 2005 00:45:19 +0000

Just finished watching shrub’s speech. Apparently the President hasn’t picked up any new material lately. Namedroppin’ the Libyans for ending their weopans program like it happened yesterday.

Anyhow — the most interesting bit about the entire speech came afterwards – during the usually empty analysis. On ABC — however — there was a startling revelation. That one bit of applause you heard during the shrub’s speech? Apparently instigated by a member of the White House Advance Team.

When it happened – I wondered aloud whether the applause sign had been malfunctioning — but thanks to on the spot reporting – we now know WHAT was involved.

So keep your eye on Google Video for the results of the White House Advance Team query…I’m curious to see how long it will take to roll up…

Heck – if you can’t wait long enough…just do a regular google query for “white house advance” — and check out those results.

UPDATE: The jig is up! At 3 minutes 30 seconds

Wondering…

Why did Frist vote nay on the Bolton debate cloture when he really wanted to vote yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy!

No…

Must…not…give…in –

can’t be political again…

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Ok — I found it in this cnn story:

Frist voted with Democrats against cutting off debate in a parliamentary move that allows him to call for the vote to be reconsidered.

I Appreciate That

I want to tune in to tonight’s Presidential press conference to confirm my suspicions.

I have a feeling Bush will unleash a 15 minute speech before the “press conference,” after which he will respond to at least one difficult question with, “Thanks, I appreciate that.”

I’ll have to see if there are any drinking games out there already — but perhaps I’ll just make one up to celebrate the end of the semester.

Actually — I’m much too tired for any of that — I’m just looking to be humored…

Cinematic Rain has a game on…

Democracy in-action

I know. It’s been a few weeks. I really should be over it. The wound still feels fresh. It hasn’t had time to heal. I thought briefly the scab had formed and the scars would be less prominent. A loathsome creature screaming that he intended to spend “political capital”; That he was given a “mandate” tore me asunder anew.

Coyote Ugly

When I saw the “big dog” bounding across the backyard Election Day morning I just thought it was somebody’s big dog bounding across our backyard.

I said, “Whoa, look at that big dog!” Then I began thinking…that’s not a big dog.

“It’s a coyote,” the former said, sticking out his bearded chin and squinting.
“What’s a coyote doing in our backyard,” moms responded.
“Maybe it’s a sign.” the former said blankly.

I called up to Willi, who must’ve looked out the upstairs window before chugging downstairs, camera in tow. We leaned towards the glass and stared, and the bounding “big dog” stopped and turned to meet our gaze. It licked its teeth, then trotted off into the woods.

Update: This went up a few minutes after this post. Maybe it’s another sign?

I can’t believe this.

It’s killing me. I’m devastated. [The Eleventh Day Comeback? Seems more unlikely than the BoSox coming from behind. Still -- I don't wanna see a premature concession ever again. Remember the Absentees and the Provisionals] Furthermore — I know how … Continue reading →
